Ash was somewhat envious of Delia's affection for Mimey; Delia once described it as more polite and helpful compared to Ash. He also became annoyed when Delia took its side after it had woken him up by using the vacuum on his face. Despite this, Ash and Mimey are on good terms, with Mimey happily accepting Ash's friendly greetings on his return trips to Pallet Town. Ash in particular is glad that Delia has Mimey as a housemate, as while he is on his journey, his mother will have company at home and will never be lonely.

In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', Ash was revealed to be a good partner for Mimey in [[Pokémon battle]]s as well. In ''[[JN007|Serving Up the Flute Cup!]]'', Ash was able to take advantage of Mimey's unusual flexibility and defensive capabilities to withstand the assault of [[Hodge]]'s {{p|Hariyama}} in the finals of the [[Battle Frontier Flute Cup]]. However, Mimey is not as reliable as some of Ash's regular Pokémon, as shown as when it immediately called it quits after their first victory as a team. As revealed in a caption in [[JN128]], Mimey sees [[Ash's Lucario]] as his pupil and prides himself for that, as they often trained together while the latter still was a newborn {{p|Riolu}}. In addition, Mimey tends to be the voice of reason whenever there is conflict.
